Celcon M270

[Bicky22]

Hi all,

What could do this to Celcon M270 in a matter of a year, see attached? Picture shows a 1 year old deteriorated part, next to a new one.

The part was untouched/Static condition.

I have no idea what it was exposed to at this time.

This is what I have been referencing:

Does anyone have thoughts on this?

Best Regards, Thank you for your help in advanced.

High temperatures, or hot water/steam, strong UV radiation. Oxidizers and acids will attack it. Solvents will swell and soften it typically, doesn't look like (not sure) if that is what your part is seeing.
